“Gun Violence is not something we have to accept, it is something we can do something about and our strategies can reap tremendous results.”- New Jersey Mayor Cory Booker

“The Caliber Collection is made up of metal from 250 guns and bullet casings seized by the Newark Police Department… The name Caliber was chosen for its two meanings; the caliber of a gun and how the caliber of a city is raised when illegal guns are taken off its streets.”

This weekend 210 guns were taken off the streets of Newark; 8 of them
were high-powered assault rifles.

These are 210 stories that
that will now have
different endings.

This weekend’s Amnesty/Buy Back marked one of the proudest moments
of my life. It is a moment that would never have been possible
without all of you who heard about the Caliber Collection and wanted to be a part of
real change.

You helped give $60,000 to Newark so they
could take more guns off the streets.

Some of you may never walk the streets of Newark, or see the faces of
those whose lives you have played a role in, but know, that today marks
a new day for many families.

Thank you for your continued support and for
joining me in the belief that together we can work to change the
caliber of America’s cities.
